Stephen Colbert apologizes to karl rove for money laundering comments (VIDEO)
Stephen Colbert is continuing to move the line on what a satirical talk show host can do in his latest war of words with Karl Rove and his lawyers.

After a September 29 episode where Colbert outlined how Rove has the ability to "launder money" from one Super PAC to another, Rove's lawyers sent the host a strongly worded email, saying that any innuendo that Rove's PACs had engaged in anything shadowy could easily be dismissed.

And in classic fashion, Colbert responded by reading the email on Thursday night's show and issuing a fake apology to Rove, vis-á-vis a ham wearing glasses.

2. Doesn't Colbert realize how high in calories ham loaf is?
And how much suffering the little piggies go through on those Corporate farms?

Please, will nobody stop this man!

He's an affront to any of us who are named Karl Rove!
